2013 -- The Candy Bar Year


 

Welcome to the candy bar calves. We have named 7 new calves in just the last 30 days. More are on their way. 


This photo was taken just hours after Godiva was born. What a gorgeous Black Angus girl she is!



Here are a few of Godiva's brothers and sisters. What a fun crew we have this time!

 
 You can see that even though the Moms have plenty of white fur, the kids are almost all the same. The Black Angus influence of the bull is predominant. 

See that good looking hay on the ground? Best we've ever had despite the drought. This is year 3 of drought with no end in sight. Even though we have had warm temps, the pastures are still dormant and brown. Hurray for hay in the barn!

We might just have to keep two or three of these candy bar girls this year!
